Retirement benefits vary widely by firm. Big 4 generally have generous pensions, though of course those are funded with what is essentially deferred compensation. At other firms the in-year compensation is higher but you're on your own to fund retirement. Big 4 is structured this way due to mandatory retirement of Partners. And they have that to ensure enough flow out of the partnership to admit a reasonable number of new partners.

This is very firm specific. If you want to know the situation at your firm, I suggest you ask around among friendly senior folks.

How concerned are you about inflation? We have 70% savings rate and 50% of our expenses are housing / utilities of which the largest part is rent which is a fixed contract (no CPI escalation, no automatic increases, paying same rent for 4 years). No car as we are living in a large city. So if I look at the components of CPI and what’s rising I am feeling pretty „good“ about it. The one thing I am „worried“ is asset inflation but obviously that benefits me directly. What am I missing?

I need advice. I met an amazing guy on a dating app. We talked for 4 months and most of the convo was sexual. I fell so hard for him and it was because when we met up in person he was so kind, caring, and respectful towards me. He never initiated conversation with me first, but if I messaged him, he would respond back immediately. Then after 4 months he ghosted me on the app we were talking on. I texted him and he told me he had a gf. I am completely heartbroken. What kind of behavior was this?
